ESD Safety

Part of SMT’s commitment to protecting on-site material and delivering extreme product quality is the depth of our very proactive focus on ESD safety. Before any employee is allowed to enter the component inspection, testing, packaging or warehousing areas, they must first pass through a custom designed “ESD Airlock System”. This automated foot-wear and wrist-wear electronic test checkpoint must register a successful test to ground result in order to gain entry to these sensitive component handling areas.

All work surfaces are completely covered with high-quality ESD matting and constantly monitored with audible / visual alarms. ESD floors, mats, alarms, wrist & footwear are tested weekly to confirm the continuous integrity levels of all ESD safeguard systems in place at SMT Corp.
